Its a national scheme that has helped cyclists in Hackney and it is very simple. You mark your bike so that any opportunistic thieves think its going to be harder to sell on. Then if you do get your bike stolen you have a chance of someone getting it back to you. You can get the products on line or look out for marking events run by the police. Follow Bike register on twitter for update! Simple.

Part of our work here looking after Cyclists is looking at images very similar to those in the new book being developed called “Cycling shouldn’t Hurt” by Neil Grayshon. These images are hard viewing, they show how cyclist bodies and lives are changed by simply trying to ride a bike to get from A to B. Neil Grayson’s view is that much of the media focus on statistics and headlines and not individual stories. With these images you cannot help but see the person, imagine their lives and how they will be changed by the bike accident. So if you are going to Spin take time out of all the fun stuff and take a moment to look at Grayshon images. Maybe they could change how society sees cyclists and how we need change on our roads and maybe one way of doing that is documenting each accident and life – one person at a time.

We have two new map flags on the way………we still care about reporting pot holes but we also care about how good and safe our junctions are for cyclist. So our new flags will highlight the 33 new junctions being re designed by TFL and any other junction we feel needs to be approached with care by cyclist and motorists – especially HGV’s. Lets hope the newly designed 33 junctions work and that what we learn about “design safety” on our roads can be added to all the dangerous junction is London!

Here is an image of the 33 junctions that the London Assemblyare going to spend 300m on. Its needed as 80% of London cyclist said they felt less safe on the roads. So lets get behind the engineers and designers who are working to solve these complex issues. There is a hope that really good design often makes a complex problem into a simple and beautiful solution. So when these new London junctions are up and running Cycling Solicitors are going to go out a photograph them as works of art – that save lives and save our planet by getting the people of London on their bikes in mighty numbers and feeling safer! Follow the engineers and designers the link between the problem and the solution – and lets hope it works!
